My Review:
I really liked "Worth The Time" by Laura Jackson. I read book 1"Worth The Wait" and so I really wanted to read this one, the 2nd in the "Waltham Academy series"and I liked it better than the first one. This story is Lindsey's story, a character in "Worth the Wait.
This story tells why Lindsey did the things she did in "Worth The Wait. This book is in the genre Young Adult and it is Christian Fiction but teaches life lessons well and is missing the things I disliked in book 1, here is the link if interested http://debbieloseanything.blogspot.com/2014/12/worth-wait-waltham-academy-book-1-by.html
This book can be a stand alone but I am glad I read book 1 before reading this book as it start up where book 1 ended.
I would recommend this book to teens and adults alike.
This book deals with many teen issues, like rejection, blended families, inattentive single parent, and being ridiculed in front of your friends, and handles the issues very well, no graphic details.
Lindsey's learns to forgive her self and learns that she is worthy.
This is a really good clean love story!
This book was really "Worth The Time" I spent reading it and I am hoping there is a third!
I know how I want the third book to go if there is one! But I guess that remains to be seen!
"Worth The Time is getting 5 stars!
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.
